Can't intall under R version 4.3.0 #110

Closed dtickler-MF closed 5 months ago

dtickler-MF commented 5 months ago

Hi there,

I'm trying to install eulerr on a PC running Windows 10, R version 4.3.0 & RStudio 2023.06.2+561.

Using command devtools::install_github("jolars/eulerr"), I get the error message

"Downloading GitHub repo jolars/eulerr@HEAD Error in utils::download.file(url, path, method = method, quiet = quiet, : cannot open URL 'https://api.github.com/repos/jolars/eulerr/tarball/HEAD'"

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Dave

I cannot reproduce this. Does installing other packages through install_github work? Does devtools::install_github("markvanderloo/tinytest") work, for instance?

dtickler-MF commented 5 months ago

That failed with the following error:

Error: Failed to install 'unknown package' from GitHub: HTTP error 404. Not Found

Did you spell the repo owner (markvanderloo) and repo name (tinytest) correctly?

If spelling is correct, check that you have the required permissions to access the repo.

I may have a very localised problem - might ask colleagues if they are suffering the same issue!

Update - problem solved. Was a version of this problem https://community.rstudio.com/t/install-packages-unable-to-access-index-for-repository-try-disabling-secure-download-method-for-http/16578
